Chord Mastery & Jazz Voicings
Why settle for standard triads? At Canopy Strings, we move beyond the basics into drop-2 voicings and quartal harmony. Don't you want your chords to tell a richer story? Our methodology focuses on the "Internal Ear," training you to hear intervals before you even play them.
Speed & Precision
Custom metronome workouts and alternate picking drills to break through your current speed ceiling.

Why did we choose Canopy Strings?
Because the instructors actually care about your individual voice. They didn't try to make me sound like someone else—they helped me sound like a better version of myself.
